Handling Complex Geometry – Ribbon
Recently, we were awarded a project to detail a curved section on the bridge for a reputed organization in Australia. The geometry involved presented some unique challenges.
From the elevation, the structure followed a non-linear zig-zag curvature, creating a dynamic and aesthetically driven form.

Use Trimble Connect for Quick Checking
Trimble Connect for Checking
Upload the reference models when you upload the model to trimble connect.
Now any one can make some quick checks.
You can turn off/on the reference models for quick checks.
May adjust the transparency too

TEK1’s Steel Detailing for Sydney Metro – Resolving Design Challenges – 8
In this blog, we share a proposal we made to the builder to make installation easier on-site.
In the OTE platform steel, we provided a PSD beam (OTB5) to support the platform screen doors below. These beams will later need to coordinate with the door manufacturer’s system.
However, in practice, structural steel is rarely placed in the exact designed level due to factors like concrete alignment, mill tolerances, and site conditions. If the beam is installed as per the design without adjustment options, it may not match the required level for the doors.
To solve this, we proposed adding packer plates so the PSD beam level can be adjusted during installation.
The client accepted our proposal, and this solution will make the erection and alignment process much easier on site.

Cloning of Assembly Drawings in Tekla
Cloning of Assembly Drawings in Tekla is the Smartest Way to Improve Detailing Efficiency
In structural steel detailing, efficiency and accuracy are critical to delivering projects on time. As projects grow larger and more complex, detailers must find smarter ways to manage repetitive components and maintain consistency across drawings. One powerful feature that helps achieve this in Tekla Structures is Assembly Drawing Cloning.
Cloning assembly drawings is a highly effective method that allows detailers to duplicate an existing assembly drawing and apply it to similar assemblies within the model. Instead of creating drawings from scratch every time, detailers can reuse a well-configured drawing layout, saving significant time while maintaining uniform standards across the project.
In steel structures, many assemblies such as beams, columns, bracing members, and connection components often share similar configurations. When these assemblies are modeled with comparable geometry and detailing requirements, cloning becomes an invaluable tool. By copying an existing drawing and adapting it automatically to another assembly, Tekla helps detailers maintain consistency in dimensions, views, marks, and annotations.
Another advantage of cloning is its ability to intelligently adapt to small variations between assemblies. Tekla automatically adjusts views, dimensions, and annotations to match the geometry of the new assembly. This allows detailers to reuse drawings even when there are minor differences in member length, hole positions, or connection details
Please refer to the video below, which elaborates on the cloning process and the working method in Tekla Structures

The Lonsdale-27 Scott St-FACADE COLUMNS
For the 27 Scott Street project, the client requested that the façade posts be installed with sufficient clearance so that the fixing anchors do not clash with the PT cable lines.
We carefully followed the client’s requirements and coordinated the design to ensure that the anchors clear the PT cable lines. The steel was successfully erected without any issues.
We would like to thank the client for giving us the opportunity to be part of this project.
